A collaboration from the lab is out! Did you ever wonder what all the oligodendrocyte precursors in the brain are up to when they don’t make myelin? They fine-tune circuits! […]
Functional and ultrastructural analysis of reafferent mechanosensation in larval zebrafish
The ability to differentiate between external sensory inputs and reafferent inputs that arise from one’s own locomotion is imperative to navigate environments. This was explored in a study done in […]
A cerebellar internal model calibrates a feedback controller involved in sensorimotor control
Check out our most recent work from Daniil A. Markov, Luigi Petrucco and, Andreas M. Kist, who investigated the role of the cerebellum in long-term motor adaptation using behavioral experiments […]
Preprint on gating of mechanosensory reafferent feedback
Iris Odstrcil’s paper from the Engert Lab on how the larval zebrafish deals with self-stimulation of its own lateral line is out on the bioRxiv. This is a great example […]
Brainrender collaboration is out in eLife
Luigi’s collaboration with Federico Claudi and Adam Tyson from the labs of Troy Margrie and Tiago Branco at the Sainsbury Wellcome Centre is out in eLife: Visualizing anatomically registered data […]
OPC collaboration
Our collaboration with the Czopka Lab is out on the bioRxiv. The study looks at the non-myelinating role that oligodendrocyte precursor cells may be playing in the optic tectum of […]
MS paper published
The manuscript Phagocyte-mediated synapse removal in cortical neuroinflammation is promoted by local calcium accumulation from the Merkler, Misgeld and Kerschensteiner labs appeared in Nature Neursocience. It was a pleasure to […]
BrainGlobe Atlas API paper is published
BrainGlobe Atlas API: a common interface for neuroanatomical atlases is out in The Journal of Open Source Software. We were happy to be able to contribute to this work together […]
Mushroom body collaboration published
We collaborated with Siju and Sophie from Ilona Grunwald Kadow’s lab on the study of dopaminergic neurons in the fly mushroom body. It is available now in the journal Current […]
Calcium sensor collaboration published
Subach’s group from Russia developed FGCaMP7, a novel calcium indicator that contains a subunit from fungi which prevents its interaction with intracellular calmodulin. This ratiometric sensor can detect active and […]
